    Re: OKC Mayor Race 2014

    Sorry guys, I really didn't intend to restart the streetcar debate. And I should have been more clear. It wasn't the ballot that brought me to that interpretation. It was the several meetings I...

    Re: OKC Mayor Race 2014

    FWIW, less than 2 cents, I interpreted the transit part of the MAPS 3 vote as a larger, more regional-focused bus system and then once enough funds were secured through a regional tax, we would have...

    Re: OKC Mayor Race 2014

    I'm ready for a Cory Booker or Wendy Davis-type Mayor. Who's with me? Know anyone?
  4. Re: You can now live Car Free in OKC - well sort of

    Thanks, I'll check it out, Sid.
  5. Re: You can now live Car Free in OKC - well sort of

    This is awesome. Damn you, OKC public schools and my inability and unwillingness to home school. Downtown OKC gets better every month.
  6. Re: City Council Races Starting to Take Shape

    About a dozen OKC planners were there, including the director. Saw Wenger and a couple of MAPS office staff, but not sure if any other city engineering staff made it. Most metro-area cities seemed...
  7. Re: Pedestrian/Bike corridor for a day?

    Was in LA during last year's Ciclavia. Very cool. Perhaps we should propose a route from City Hall to ODOT.

    Re: Project 180

    Thank you to all, including Steve, who tweeted, blogged, posted and made calls to force the city to correct thier mistake. The right, upstanding thing would have been for Wenger to include a simple...

    Re: Project 180

    The only reason people drove in the right lane was because the parking wasn't marked and therefore cars weren't parked. Why wasn't that done when the bike lanes were painted? I drive on Walker every...

    Re: The Modern Streetcar and Commuter Transit Project in MAPS 3 Progresses

    Love the rumor jokes ^^^^!

    Adaniel - IMO the streetcar funds will stay put, but Shadid is bringing up several technical, operational and financial questions and issues that deserve answers and...

    Re: Project 180

    Thanks cafe. Having trouble believing this is temporary. On Twitter today, the PIO said it was due to future construction. The only construction announced (to date) along Walker is Rex Elementary. ...

    Re: Downtown Elementary School

    So sad to read that the Downtown Elementary School won't be adding a grade every year. Thanks, Steve, for clarifying this in your interview today. The confusion was due to a couple of stories and ads...

    Re: Embassy Suites Health Sciences Center

    Couldn't agree more, Sid. No disrespect to the streetcar committee experts.

    IMO parental involvement and local partners, such as businesses, art programs and neighborhood associations, are essential to a having a successful school. Any school can get those things if the...

    Re: 609 W. Sheridan

    Rover - If you haven't, you should see it in person and in its entirety. The above photo doesn't do the new windows, awnings and facade work justice. I work near it and have watched the detail that...

    Re: McKown Deep Deuce Apartments

    The flats offered a 3 bedroom unit, which we were happy to finally see downtown. The day it listed, we drove there to check out the view, etc. Probably would have taken it a step further but we saw...
  19. Re: Lake Hefner at record low water levels, when will city buy Canton water?
